AcceptPathInfo On problem

Next topic

Author	Message
A M	Tuesday 14 March 2006 9:49:41 am Installed eZ Publish which required required webserver to have "AcceptPathInfo On" in apache config. Without that links like http://www.mysite.com/index.php/corporate/contacts refuse to work. Adding "AcceptPathInfo On" to .htaccess didn't work. Asked my host to change my site's webserver config.The response was that AcceptPathInfo is an Apache 2 directive, and they run Apache 1.3, so this can not actually be used or modified. Any ideas on how to fix this?

If you're dealing with Apache 1.3, forget about that directive :-) If index.php appears in URLs, it means the virtual host hasn't been configured properly. Please refer to the docs ( http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/3_6/installation/virtual_host_setup ) for the correct configuration. As a sidenote: AcceptPathInfo has little or nothing to do with the index.php appearing, even if you'd be using Apache2. It determines if "path info" after a filename is accepted (the "/corporate/contacts" after index.php in your URL) or not. Hans http://blog.hansmelis.be

Hi,
